Draupadi saw who helped her and couldn't help but stare at the handsome face of his, she remembers him, he was there in hastinapur, he even gifted her something for self defence.

She often thought, why would a random any person wil be concerned for her and he's Prince on that so that was pretty confusing, she sought help from Govind, her only sakha who knew almost everything. It was amusing how he knew answer for any questions she or her sister asked.

"Rajkumari Draupadi?"

The curiosity in Arjun's voice wasn't hidden, nor was he masking his facial expressions. He wanted to know what the Princess was doing at a temple, without guards and that too in the clothes of commoner.

"Haan?"

Draupadi blinked and was out of her thoughts, she was slightly panicking inside, she didn't knew what to answer, and she don't know why. She is Draupad's daughter Draupadi, the one who was never afraid of saying anything to anyone and yet here she is speechless infornt of him. As she was panicking inside, she saw her sister coming with apples and..........Angraj Karn?

What is Angraj is doing with her sister??? Her sweet Di with him? How?

"Arjun, hum Prasad hetu seb le aaye, tum phool laaye?"

("Arjun, I have brought apples for Prasad, have you brought flowers?")

Arjun narrowed his eyes on Karn, but he just nodded his head, pointing his hands over the flowers. Karn gave him a nod.

Vrushali trailed off in a small voice, her tone gentle and formal, which Karn didn't like but he can't do anything about.

"We will take our leave now, thank you for your help Angraj"

Saying that, Vrushali turned to Draupadi, indicating her that they should take their leave now, Draupadi was about to object when she realised why Vrushali is doing that, they left the palace without informing anyone and they should probably go back before anyone finds out that they are gone, with a nod, she and Vrushali both turned to Karn and Arjun, bowing down to them a little in respect and they went away with some flowers and apples in their hands, talking to eachother, leaving Karn and Arjun alone in the temple.

"Jiji when we will reach palace???"

A very excited Bhanumati asked her sister, for 5th time in 10 minutes. Satyabhama was being as patient as she can but her sister can really test her patience sometimes, she loves her sister, no doubt but she sometime wish Bhanumati can read the room.

Satyabhama sighed softly, before turning to Bhanumati,

"We will reach by evening my dear sister, now let me rest and get soe rest for yourself too"

Bhanumati pouted but nodded her head, before gazing outside, appreciating the beautiful nature created by God.

The warm winds made her hair flow in the air, a small moan of appreciation left her mouth, as she closed her eyes and sat to enjoy te winds.

"I can totally guess how Vrushali jiji and Drau jiji will react to the news"

Bhanumati giggled, she was more excited for the wedding than anyone, but the most excited one was, ofcourse, Kalingkumari Satyabhama.
Satyabhama could hardly control her blush that was spread on her cheeks and eyes, even the thought of being married to Him, felt unreal. She wasn't sure how, but she had came from being irritated by him to bring unable to keep him away from her thoughts, she feels unreal connection to him, as if, as if something is pushing her towards him.

"Jiji, aap humare hone wale jija shree ko yaad kar rahi hai kya?"

("Sister, are you remembering my soon to be brother-in-law?")

Bhanumati, as always, didn't missed the opportunity to tease her sister, like a dedicated younger sibling whose sole purpose is to annoy their eldest to the core. Satyabhama blushed even more at her question but quickly gathered herself and glared at Bhanumati, pretending to be annoyed by her.

"Oh don't give me that look, I know you are secretly happy that I am teasing you"

Bhanumati added with a grin, to which Satyabhama just rolled her eyes and looked away with a smile, she can't really wait to get married.
